I thought it was made pretty clear that Magus didn't destroy those planets unaided... If that's the 'massive power up' you were referring to.Anyway, Marv likely wins unless Supes grabs him by the neck. That's his weak spot, apparently.
been a while since I read it, but I recall it being Magus
Originally posted by Sr J-BiebMagus triggered the detonation, but he was being amped by "trillions of true believers" at the time--unamped, his power is nowhere near that level. That's important because when Marv killed him, he was no longer being amped--as said believers were, obviously, dead.

Either way, he still wiped out a being who was far above Nova, smacked away Quasar easily, and Mar-Vell rocked Evil Quasar (who was equal to Nova/Quasar) when he killed Magus. Him and Evil Quasar were the only ones who stood up to the blast with no ill effects, and then Mar-Vell comes along and makes them look like children
The amp would have put the feat on a completely nother level, but it doesn't matter.

Sans that, Marv wins.
